I'm on standard 182 cup wheels, so 7x16. I went for 205/45/16's and they were around £76 a corner if my memory serves me right.
I think when I was looking there were only two suppliers in the UK - camskill and another, but I can't for the life of me remember who else. Sorry.
I've got nothing but praise for the RS2's. I've tried Exalto's and Kumho V70A's previously.
The RS2's are most similar to the Exalto's, but they have a higher level of grip and I found that they did not degrade in the same way after a day of abuse at Brands, the side walls feel significantly...
Basically, I want this with a round bezel!

I don't think depth will be much of a problem, there's plenty of room behind, but I'm keen to keep everything as flush as possible, in a similar way to the horn buttons already on the wheel.
The metal part to be drilled is approximately 4mm thick. I want to use a low profile switch with a...
Some good ideas and information coming! Thanks Rich and Kevin.
Now the search starts for the right momentary switches! I've been at it most of the day and found a few switches that I like the look of (the aesthetic appearance is equally as important as the function as far as I'm concerned)...
Looks like you had fun! Love the grass pic! I ended up on 12 clicks rear and 7 front at Brands the other day - but then we all know my spring rates are a little soft at the rear - no understeer though, so I'm happy.
Turini's it is then! Thanks Steve! For anyone interested in the above, the link is here:

Can't vouch for the trader, but he seems to be on a fair few Jap forums.
Hmmmm, that's tempting!! You bored of yours then?
It pro's and cons though!
The dc2 wheels are 6.45kg, the turini's 8.something!
The turini's fit perfectly, the dc2's would need spigot rings!
I'm undecided!
Really?
They look ever so slightly different to me. A little flatter on the face. Still, the posts have answered my question. Turini shape = yes from CS.
I may have to speak to an electrician friend of mine tonight. Just looking at the other side and it's a different colour and has slightly different markings. I have no idea if that makes any difference or whether it's just left and right to suit the housings.
The green is the on/off side. The...
This may be rubbish, but I'm starting to think it might be a membrane switch. After reading about how calculators work and what happens when you press a key it appears to be very similar to the CC buttons:
Press down on one of the number keys on your calculator and a series of things will...
There's one wire in and one wire out. The switch has two contact points on it that are depressed by little rubber buttons that also act as the spring mechanism to push the button away from the contact after pressing it.
There's no illumination, so that's one complication gone. It's the fact...
The buttons look like they actually have a simple circuit underneath, so I'm not sure that a couple of push button switches will be a straight swap. I'll take the switch out of it's housing later and get some pics.
At the moment I'm at work taking a calculator apart for research purposes :cool:
